Delineation of Radar Glacier Zones in the Antarctic Peninsula Using Polarimetric SAR [PDF]

open access: yesWater (Switzerland), 2020
Climate change is a cause of the expansion of snowmelt phenomena in the Antarctic, and shifts in position of wet and dry snow lines have been considered as good indicators of climate changes. The impacts of climate change are observable by the delineation of significant position change of glacier zones.

Automatic delineation of glacier grounding lines in differential interferometric synthetic-aperture radar data using deep learning [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
AbstractDelineating the grounding line of marine-terminating glaciers—where ice starts to become afloat in ocean waters—is crucial for measuring and understanding ice sheet mass balance, glacier dynamics, and their contributions to sea level rise. This task has been previously done using time-consuming, mostly-manual digitizations of differential ...

Delineation of debris-covered glacier boundaries using optical and thermal remote sensing data

Remote Sensing Letters, 2010
The varying extent of debris cover on a glacier's boundary may seriously hinder automated mapping and inventorying of glaciers in various parts of the world. The problem arises because supraglacial debris (i.e. debris on the glacier) and the adjacent periglacial debris (occurring outside the glacier boundary) have a similar spectral response in the ...

Automatic glacier calving front delineation on terrasar-x and sentinel-1 sar imagery

2017 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2017
This paper presents an approach for automatic calving front delineation of marine-terminating outlet glaciers. We utilize a Canny edge detection approach together with a shortest path optimization problem to find calving front locations (CFL) on SAR backscattering images from Sentinel-1 and TerraSAR-X.

Improved Delineation of Individual Outlet Glacier Drainage Basins From Tandem-X Elevations And Sentinel-1 Velocities [PDF]

open access: yesIGARSS 2019 - 2019 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2019
Individual drainage basins of ice sheets specify the glaciated area that is drained by a single outlet glacier. These catchments are needed to partition mass balance measurements to the single glacier level. Until now complete glacier inventories that contain annotated basin information are missing for the Earth’s two ice sheets.
